January 18, 2018 - AffarInternazionali published an editorial by SEP senior fellow Ferdinando Nelli Feroci, in which he discusses concerns expressed by some members of the European Commission regarding the upcoming Italian elections on March 4th. He points out that their concerns are not only because of the uncertainty that the post-election political framework might bring to the next Italian government but, perhaps equally so, because it has thus far been an electoral campaign that has been predominantly conducted under the banner of irresponsibility and superficiality.
